78, the lower nine gates
Li Muyi and the first mate came to the captain's room together, and the seriously injured and dying Hei Sanye was lying on the bed.
"Thank you Immortal Master for saving your life!" "Hei Sanye was very polite, he was a middle-aged man, with a tall body and a dark complexion. At this time, even if he walks on the sickbed, he looks like a sick tiger with injuries.
Looking at Hei Sanye's ruddy complexion, Li Muyi couldn't help but be surprised, yesterday the bald head Liu's sword pierced through his heart, and it was a miracle that Hei San was able to live for a quarter of an hour, but now the other party was able to wake up, and it seemed to be showing signs of improvement.
"You're welcome, I happened to pass by and helped out. Li Muyi wanted to know why the two sides were fighting, but he didn't ask.
"I don't know if the Immortal Chief is a person from the Thunder Gate, I saw your thunder essence yesterday, the power is huge, and the essence of the thunder technique is deep!"
Li Muyi shook his head, and it was not easy to find out if he spoke only half-truths and half-truths, "I use thunder arts, but I am not from the Thunder Gate, I have been practicing in the mountains with my master, and this time I was very quiet, so I came out for a walk, and I didn't know much about the things outside." ”
Hei Sanyi heard that Li Muyi was not from the Thunder Gate, a smile appeared on his face, and he asked again: "It turns out that Dao Master you have entered the world to practice, do you have a place to go, what are your plans for the future?"
When a cultivator reaches a certain level, he will enter the mundane world and cultivate his mind in order to strengthen his foundation, so it is called the experience of entering the world.
Li Muyi pretended to know nothing, and said very confused: "The tutor asked me to find a job, as long as I can earn 3,000 wen a month, I can!"
Three thousand wen, this is not a small amount, the reason why Li Muyi saved a group of them and came to the ship with a cheeky face was to get his job done!
When Hei Sanye and the first mate heard this, they all grinned, three thousand wen is indeed not a small number, but for a strong man like Li Muyi, it is also a casual thing.
However, Hei Sanye didn't mean to leave Li Muyi, but when he saw Li Muyi's methods and was saved his life, he didn't even have the idea of recruiting this strong man on the ship.
This made Li Muyi very strange that his thug who was sent to the door was not taken by others.
"With Dao Ye's means, this kind of trivial matter is not simple. It's just that this outside world is sinister, but you have to be careful. Hei Sanye reminded with a smile, obviously very grateful to Li Muyi.
The two chatted for a while, and saw that Hei Sanye was a little in good spirits, Li Muyi left the captain's room with interest and returned to the hut where he lived again.
The knock on the door of "Bangbang~" sounded, and the two sounds, it seemed that the person knocking on the door was a little restrained and hesitant.
Li Muyi got up and opened the door, and the person who came was a boatswain, that is, one of the people who was rescued by Li Muyi on the beach before, and he had some impressions.
"Master Dao, the grace of saving your life cannot be repaid!" The boatswain came to deliver food with wine and food.
Li Muyi let the boatswain into the house and invited the other party to have two drinks together.
The boatswain hesitated, but sat down anyway.
"Is this a pirate ship?" Li Muyi asked directly.
The boatswain did not deceive, and nodded directly.
Li Muyi asked some other questions, knocked on the side, and finally knew that this was on the Korean Peninsula, near Toshima.
The time is July 1, 1894.
If you don't know this time very well, for the neighboring China, it is the Qing Dynasty, the first year of the Wu Dynasty!
On July 25th, the Battle of Toshima will take place!
And before that, on July 23, Japan will raid the royal palace in Seoul!
"How could you be surrounded by the bald Liu? It seems that you were staying for a lot of things at the time!" Li Muyi asked very casually, as if chatting, but he was very cautious in his heart, because he was very curious about the identities of Hei San and the bald Liu.
And the Thunder Gate mentioned by Hei San before also made Li Muyi a little impressed.
"Dao Master, you really don't know?" The boatswain was a little surprised, he thought that Li Muyi was also a person on the Dao.
Li Muyi smiled, and then said: "I just came down the mountain, the master used to be strict, I have been practicing on the mountain since I was born, how can I know these things outside!"
The boatswain was right when he heard this, this young man was terrifying, if he hadn't put in a lot of hard work, how could he have such skills at such a young age!
Before adding it, Li Muyi could be regarded as saving his life, and the boatswain did not doubt that he had it, and told everything he knew like pouring beans into a bamboo tube.
This Black Third Master and the bald head Liu Ye are both pirates in the vicinity, they are not only strong individually, but also have some sideways.
The supernatural powers that these people possess are what they have learned in their respective sects.
Just like the small drum used by Hei San before, it is the means of Lemen, and the bald Liu is the corpse gate, these sects are collectively called the "Lower Nine Gates".
Li Muyi was mistaken for a person from the Thunder Gate by Hei San before, and the Thunder Gate was also one of the Lower Nine Gates.
"You are also a person from the Lower Nine Gates, right?" Li Muyi looked at the boatswain with a smile, since the other party knew the Lower Nine Gates so well, it was obvious that he would not be a layman.
The boatswain scratched his head slightly in embarrassment, and smiled with yellow teeth showing only the bright red gums.
"I'm a water monkey, but my skills can't be compared with Daoye. ”
The water monkey is a lower nine gate that is good at moving in the water, salvaging shipwreck treasures, and collecting corpses at the bottom of the river, all of which they are good at.
According to the boatswain, the best of the water monkeys can go ashore for a day and a night in the water, and even Li Muyi can't do this kind of kung fu.
"It seems that there are really some masters hidden in the lower nine gates. Li Muyi secretly said in his heart, and he also kept his mind on the lower nine gates.
Finally, I found out the name of this boatswain, called Deng Mao.
Inquire about some news again, but Deng Mao is deliberately avoiding it, obviously, he is not willing to reveal some things easily, even if Li Muyi has a life-saving grace for him.
Li Muyi also expressed that he wanted to find a job, and explained that he didn't know anything, just came down the mountain, and had no acquaintances.
Deng Mao was very happy when he learned about it, and promised to let Li Muyi stay, as long as Li Muyi did not dislike condescending to condescension.
"As long as Brother Deng can help me with this, I will definitely thank you, brother!" patted Deng Mao's shoulder, the two seemed to be long-lost brothers.
"Brother, you saved my life before! I can't help with this little thing!"
The two of them seemed to be very familiar with each other, Deng Mao was no longer restrained, and sat for a while before he got up and left, leaving Li Muyi alone in the house.
